Happy Father's Day To The Heartthrob Bow Tie Wearing Dads

Posted on 13 June 2017

I have always loved a man in a bow tie! To me, it shows a personal style that oozes confidence.

Bow ties have become synonymous with some celebrities, and in some cases, have completely defined their look. After all, imagine what would have become of Colonel Sanders, Orville Redenbacher, Bill Nye The Science Guy and The Cat in the Hat be if they didn't have their bow ties?

There are so many different fabrics, patterns, and styles of bow ties that every man is bound to find the one that suits his personality.

Manolo Blahnik yes, a famous shoe designer, but also a famous bow tie wearer!

Bow ties aren't as simple as they might seem to the novice wearer, they can be slim, normal or wide, self-Tie (or freestyle) that you tie yourself, pre tied or clip on. They come in many shapes including; butterfly, western, batwing, diamond point, rounded, etc.

Karl Lagerfeld is known to wear many styles of bow ties including this cravat bow.
